The "Bring Him Home" video highlighted the international campaign to support the repatriation of of Michael Campbell, an Irish POW and political prisoner. Michael Campbell was jailed outside of Ireland in an Lithuanian prison where conditions were and still are deplorable and unfit for human habitation. This was a human rights issue. Supporters of Michael Campbell were found world wide. An online petition was available those who wished to join in the campaign to return Michael to Ireland. Thankfully, Michael was exonerated and released from prison at the beginning of October and is now back in Ireland.<br /> <br /> But many more Irish POW's and political prisoners remain incarcerated and in need of your support. Please consider joining in the annual Christmas Greeting Card campaign. No peace without freedom. No freedom without justice.
